I noted that what WAS my favorite radio station had gone from all music, few comments, to all talk all the time. Thus began my quest, once again, to find a tolerable radio station.
Yes, I’ve heard of satelite radio, like Sirius. Friends have attempted me to subscribe. I look at the information and feel like my head is going to explode. I just want a little box in the rooms I spend the most time in that I can turn on and music will come out. That’s all I want. Really.
So, I spent several mornings looking for a radio station that played music. Even if it wasn’t entirely music, as long as there were no idiotic DJs making idiotic comments that annoyed me. I deal with enough annoying people. I’m not inviting their comments into my home via radio waves.
I finally stumbled across one! They play music. Minor interruptions for ads. No DJs. Yay!
The downside: They’re “light” and “soft”. Every time they profess how light and soft they are, I feel ancient as the hills. I’m listening to my mother’s music. I try to take some solace in the fact they are not only “light” and “soft” but also “fresh” – but really, who am I kidding?
Reminds me – I need to delete my old radio station from my MySpace friends. Take THAT! I’m sure they’ll be devastated.
I am so with ya on this. But my issue her in lovely southern CA is everything is spanish or almost as bad, country! Sorry..but I am still in the US, there are still 15 miles before I’d be in another country. My boss tried to sell me on XM or Sirius too, but it’s just wrong to have to pay for radio! Sheesh! I pulled out some Christmas music to play in the car. By December 1st, I will be so over Christmas!
“Light” and “soft”…sounds like that Dr. Laura show or whoever it is that people call in to play love songs for someone on another planet that will never hear the song or the sentiment behind it! Well..unless Sleepless in Seattle is real life!
All this MySpace talk…maybe I shouldn’t have let Dr. Phil skeer me so much eh?
